Beaufour Ipsen to sell valsartan in France

18 May 2003

Beaufour Ipsen has entered into an agreement with Aventis in which it will take over the promotion in France of the latter's range of products based on valsartan, an angiotensin II receptor antagonist. As of the end of March, Beaufour has been promoting the Nisis brand of valsartan and related product Nisisco (valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide) in France and all its territories, as well as the principalities of Andorra and Monaco.

Beaufour notes that, in 2002, Nisis and Nisisco had a turnover of more than 24 million euros ($28 million), bolstered by the launch of a new high-dose Nisisco formulation (160mg of valsartan and 25mg of hydrochlorothiazide) last February.
